Good afternoon,

I was creating a bootable Open Core Legacy Pathcer and I had first installed the EFI on the USB, when it asked me to reboot and when I rebooted, it booted from the USB.

Well, it turns out that I have an SSD disk and another PCI disk, since now it turns out that it is impossible to boot from the SSD.

I can only boot from the PCI, even though in the boot loader I select the SSD.

Surely I have ruined something, is that right?


I hope your help.


Thank you.

Sounds like your iMac has Fusion Drive components. Can you boot the iMac at all from the internal storage? If so, open Terminal app and type "diskutil list" and post output here.

If no boot, try start up while press and holding Command+R then open Terminal and type the command.

Yes, I can boot from the PCI, just from it, nothing else.

Sorry, but did you mean to write patcher? You 'pathcer'. If that's a legit word then I just learned something.
